Vacation, holidays, break... Summer time is always a good way to explore new spots. Halt to Copenhagen, Marseille and Sorrento, three notable 20th century hotel design.


SAS Royal Hotel by Arne Jacobsen - Copenhagen - 1955/60
Room 606: the original and single space by Arne Jacobsen kept.
For the little story, the Swan and Egg chairs born there. A great trip through the Scandinavian modernity.

Parco dei Principi designed by Gio Ponti - Sorrento, Italy - 1962

A master piece of blue and white looking at the sea. Gio Ponti an elegant lesson of Italian design.

Le Corbusier Hotel - Cité Radieuse by Le Corbusier, Marseilles, France - 1946-52

An experience on pilotis ! 
La Maison du Fada (home of loony) shows a new way to live: the collective dwelling. Le Corbusier made a "paquebot" of concrete with his own unity of measurement: the Modulor. A perfect occasion to understand the architectural issues after the World War II.
